Thankyou for providing me with the opportunity to comment on these changes. I am sorry to say that I find a number of them quite horrifyingly.
The decoupling of listing from the data is poor decision. The shift from science-backed decision making to a board of bureaucrats is also a step backwards. The Species at Risk Conservation Trust seems to allow the wealthy and reckless the opportunity to skip the rules. The twelve month transition provision for agreement holders is way too long.
I do agree with the changes to move the majority of communication online and eliminate duplicative requirements. This website is an excellent resource and the government should make full use of it.
Your party needs to do some serious soul-searching. Conservatism used to be synonymous with conservationism. Many of these choices are the wrong ones.
